This bug is present both on the WhatsApp iOS and Android versions, and it is a big embarrassment to the Facebook-owned company which spent $21 billion for the instant messenger, and yet, can't handle simple blocking function.

To only solution to this problem is to unblock the blocked account and block it again, as of the time of this writing, WhatsApp hasn't made any statement concerning the bug, let alone fix it.
